Creatine when cutting?

Creatine will make your body retain fluid, but it will disappear when you stop taking it.

How tall are you?

 

Yeah you don't want to be taking that pal...

 

The water weight will disappear after about a month after you finish cycling it.

 

so you need to lose 20 pounds, lets say you drop your body fat down to 5 to 8 % thats a 10 % drop in BF, which will lead to you losing 15 pounds while maintaining the same muscle mass,

looks like its possible if you shed some water or lose a bit of muscle mass before weigh in, its a lot of weight to be losing when your doing things arse ways to begin with and 5 to 8 % BF is pretty low

 

how tall are you?

 

Also, if you want to lose the water weight after creatine, it takes about a month to get it out of your system, so keep that in mind.

 

You get creatine in steak even I wouldn't panic, I wouldn't worry unless you're going for a comp, in which case you want to alter your entire diet, drop pre and post workouts and get on a fat burner.

i thought only monohydrate caused water retention?

 

Riiight... Considering Creatine causes water retention sounds like a fantastic idea. And if your BF is that high then you're a chubby ****er. And what difference will it make if your ripped? Presumably you think thats going to help with your performance right? .....

 

Jack3d has a high caffeine content. I wouldn't be using that for any weight loss regime.

 

What is the benefit that your are getting from the rice cakes? I see it is used regularly.
